    India-WI T20Is: Dhawan ruled out, Samson named his replacement
  • The Indian cricket team suffered a blow ahead of the three-match T20I series against West Indies at home, starting December 6.

    Senior opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan has been ruled out of the series.

    Wicket-keeper batsman Sanju Samson has been named his replacement.

    Dhawan suffered a knee injury while playing in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.

    Here's more.

  • Earlier, according to a report in The Hindu, Dhawan injured his left knee while playing for Delhi in a match against Maharashtra in the first Super League match of the domestic T20 tournament.

    The incident occurred when Dhawan attempted a full-stretch dive while batting, and a piece of wood from his pad pierced his knee.

    The batsman later received multiple stitches.

  • Dhawan, who is unlikely to recover in time for the T20Is, will eye a return for the ODIs.

    He hasn't enjoyed a lot of success since being forced to leave the 2019 World Cup midway.

    His form in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy hasn't been great.

    In five matches, his highest score was 35.

    Dhawan will need to make a strong comeback.

  • Samson

  • Samson was called up to the T20I side against Bangladesh earlier this month.

    However, he didn't get a single game.

    For the series against West Indies, the promising player was dropped.

    It's a good move by the selectors to name him as Dhawan's replacement.

    He will hope to get some matches under his belt in order to stake a claim in the team.
